Can I write off my rental vehicle cost? I had to ship my vehicle from my last PCS location to my new one and it took 2 months. The military did not entitle me to a rental

If you used the rental vehicle to move and drive to your new location during a PCS move, you may be able to deduct the rental costs as part of your unreimbursed moving expenses

 

The IRS allows deductions for reasonable travel expenses directly related to the move, including transportation of household goods and personal effects.
